We are committed to providing quality co-education that is accessible. This is achieved through careful management and the sensible use of resources.
Our School’s basic philosophy is based on a contemporary understanding of social justice and the right and responsibilities which come from being members of the Australian community.
A Calm Structured SchoolAt Bacchus Marsh Grammar we know what type of environment delivers the best possible education.
Learning best occurs when there is a clear structure and clarity of expectations of students. This is applied at “whole school” level and in our well-defined and consistent approach to individual teaching and classroom management.
We know that learning is optimised by a calm, friendly and purposeful environment. This enables students to concentrate on their learning, work towards achieving their personal best and develop their individual talents. Our teachers reinforce this environment with their genuine care and concern for each student and their academic and personal development, and their clear and structured teaching methods.
Such an environment fosters the development of positive social skills. Behaviour which interferes with the learning or happiness of others is not tolerated.
